Nintendo's winter games

Nintendo's monthly Japanese conference reveals winter line-up as well as a smidgen of new Wii and DS information.

18 games will go on sale for the Wii in Japan this year, 16 of which will be available alongside the console on its December 2nd launch.

Apparently, Nintendo's marketing department is following the same strategy as it did with the DS, trying to capture a new audience of non-gamers in much the same way it did with its dual-screen handheld.
